China and many European countries are investing huge amounts of their GDP in making smart architectural infrastructure, for example Smart Roads and Bridges for the safety of people. In these smart bridges, if corrosion or if any malfunction happens it will communicate directly so that repair work can be done at the proper time. Smart agriculture is also in research, Waspmote has taken this initiative for the optimum productivity of crops. This is implemented by using the sensor networks to maintain the monitoring capacity of crop cultivation throughout the production cycle. For example, depending on soil humidity, Waspmote can send a message to the user (through the ZigBee network or by SMS) and automatically switch ON/OFF the water supply, thus contributing towards efficient water management.
It’s the technology of today which is touching and transforming every aspect of our real life. IOT has given birth to the concept of Machine-to-Machine (M2M) communication. Companies like Microsoft and SAP have already started to implement the strategy to capitalize on the Internet of Things.
IOT is going to have a huge impact on smart home appliances and building automation systems where every convenience will be taken care of by the interconnected devices.
IoT is also being deployed on large scale, for example in Songdo, South Africa, the first of its kind, fully equipped and wired smart city is nearing its completion (known as Ubiquitous City).
In the medical science field, IOT has given the privilege to devices and systems to sense and predict diseases accurately and to prevent it. For example, IoT can make a person healthier with wearables that can predict heart attack and cardiovascular strokes.
As per a report of The Sun Daily, consumers will start initiating the usage of IoT in a better way from 2020 and onwards compared to the past usage. It is expected that IoT products with interoperable capability will dominate the market. Awareness of IoT products is also vital for market penetration along with security features.
Even now very few Americans are aware of the usage of these products. As per a study of Consumer Electronics Association and Parks Associates, they found only 10% of the households in USA fully understood the usage of these products. But this percentage is expected to reach new heights in the coming years.
Many interesting IoT products like automatic door locks, WiFi connected ceiling fans, light switches, LED bulbs, smart watches, 3-D printers and smart clothes will become popular among consumers very soon. MyBrain Technology in France has developed “Melomind". This EEG Headset can measure a human's brain waves and adjust music in a Smartphone app as they change. This product can be used as a digital meditation aid also.
Smart baby pacifier is the latest IoT product to the market and it can measure the temperature of a baby and transmit the same to the Smartphone of parents. Our lives will never be the same with such innovative products coming to use. But it is for the better way itself!
IoT is proving to be an emerging technological innovation. In the current context, it is now possible that a helmet of a two-wheeler can interact with a car to avoid a collision. Connected toothbrush can now monitor and make one's morning experience pleasurable. A three dimensional sensor of the electric brush can connect with Smartphone apps and provide real-time feedback to the person.
With all the above points, it is pretty clear that IoT is going to be implemented in almost all the appliances that we use on an everyday basis. And it would be a huge advantage if you can learn this technology and get skilled during your engineering course itself.
You can develop a great career on IoT by understanding them from the very basics.
And, there is no better way to get skilled in a specific technology than building projects. So you can utilize your Mini/Final year projects to learn IoT in an effective way.
So in conclusion, IoT projects could make huge value addition to your Resume and your future higher studies opportunities.
